The Problem

Static store locators don't show inventory

Shopify Store Locator, Square Store Locator, Clover Store Locator, Lightspeed Retail, WooCommerce Store Locator, BigCommerce Store Locator, Magento Store Locator, Storemapper, Bullseye Locations, and Stockist show pins on a map — but not whether the SKU the shopper wants is in stock.

Shoppers drive to empty stores, lost trust

Shoppers don't want to click through 5 stores

A shopper looking for size 9 in red wants the closest store with that SKU — not to click through 5 store pages. Static locators force the search.

Lower in-store conversion, abandonment

Voice search needs a different UX

A shopper asking Alexa or Siri "find me a Frontdesk store near me with X in stock" needs a voice-native response — not a web page. Static locators don't serve voice.

Lost voice-search traffic

Floor staff get pulled to answer locator calls

"Do you have X in stock?" calls flood Square POS, Clover, Lightspeed, and Shopify POS stores. Associates get pulled off the floor to do inventory lookups.

Lower in-store conversion, frustrated associates

FAQ

Common questions about AI Store Locator Bot

Frontdesk integrates with Yardi Voyager, Yardi Breeze, RentCafe, RealPage OneSite, Knock CRM, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, ResMan, Rent Manager, and MRI Software. Here's what retail brands and merchants ask most.

Contact support

Shopify Store Locator, Square Store Locator, Clover Store Locator, Lightspeed Retail Store Locator, WooCommerce Store Locator, BigCommerce Store Locator, Magento Store Locator, Storemapper, Bullseye Locations, Stockist, and Locatorsearch are static map widgets — but cannot have a two-way conversation, can't check live inventory, and can't handle voice search. Frontdesk does all three across Square POS, Clover, Lightspeed, Shopify POS, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and Magento.
